People at high risk of getting HIV can reduce their risk with medication regimens called nPEP and PrEP. You can take PrEP before you are exposed. After you are exposed, nPEP can help reduce your risk of getting HIV.

Here’s what you need to know about STD testing & treatment at this health center:

We can test for gonorrhea and chlamydia using a urine sample. If this test shows an infection, then we will provide you with treatment and explain how your partner(s) can be treated.

For testing involving urine samples, including chlamydia and gonorrhea, do not urinate or engage in sexual intercourse for one hour before testing.

Many STD tests require a genital exam.

Rapid HIV testing can be done by swabbing the inside of your mouth. The results are available in 20-30 minutes.

Payment is expected at time of service unless other arrangements have previously been made.

Some STD testing and treatment services may be covered by your insurance. If you want to use your insurance, please be sure to bring in your insurance information at the time of your visit.
